The SD library allows for reading from and writing to SD cards, e.g. on the Arduino Ethernet Shield. It is built on [[http://code.google.com/p/sdfatlib/ | sdfatlib]] by William Greiman. The library supports FAT16 and FAT32 file systems on standard SD cards and SDHC cards. It uses short 8.3 names for files. The file names passed to the SD library functions can include paths separated by forward-slashes, /, e.g. "directory/filename.txt". Because the working directory is always the root of the SD card, a name refers to the same file whether or not it includes a leading slash (e.g. "/file.txt" is equivalent to "file.txt").

Because the working directory is always the root of the SD card, a name refers to the same file whether or not it includes a leading slash (e.g. "/file.txt" is equivalent to "file.txt"). As of version 1.0, the library supports opening multiple files.

!!!Using SD shields and adaptersVarious manufacturers have created boards and shields that incorporate the SD card. However, not all of them use the same SS pin. For example, the Sparkfun shield uses pin 8, while the Arduino Ethernet Shield uses pin 4. Below are wiring and code examples using common SD shields and boards.

The communication between the microcontroller and the SD card uses [[Reference/SPI | SPI]], which takes place on digital pins 11, 12, and 13 (on most Arduino boards) or 50, 51, and 52 (Arduino Mega). Additionally, another pin must be used to select the SD card. This can be the hardware SS pin - pin 10 (on most Arduino boards) or pin 53 (on the Mega) - or another pin specified in the call to SD.begin(). '''Note that even if you don't use the hardware SS pin, it must be left as an output or the SPI communication won't work.'''
